As Lortica, Sydney producer Alister Hill has been quietly creating beautiful soundscapes from the tired remains of old cassette tapes and found sounds. Manipulated live with a 4-track recorder and effects pedals, Lortica shows an understanding and respect for the genre within which he falls but an irreverence for typical musical constructs.

Following his debut album Mialle Tapes released on Phinery tapes (Denmark) and Feral Media (Australia) in 2014, Lortica has burrowed away to create a new tape-based method of composition incorporating dramatic digital manipulation contrasted with live tape dubs.
